Hi Scott,
A recent post caught my attention and brought me back to this thread. The first seed pack in row six (third from the bottom going up) of your post #15 is of interest to me. The pack is written in Russian and labeled as Перец БОГАТЫРЬ. Перец is the Russian word for pepper and БОГАТЫРЬ refers to knights or valiant warriors. There is famous painting of bogatyrs (БОГАТЫРЬ) by Viktor Vasnetsov here; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viktor...2.80.931926.29

I am very interested in growing this pepper out and multiplying the seeds for distribution.

P.S.Some folks might consider "Ragnarok (Thor)" to be a bogatyr type character.
